How to create corporate
For organisations, businesses and charities
Real world examples

Includes
Values
Core values are...
The essential and enduring tenets of an organisation.
The central beliefs of an organisation—the principles by
which an organisation lives and breathes.
Those you would keep no matter how the world around you
changed.

Dane, M. (2009)
These are the values that are held so fundamentally
and deeply that they will seldom change, if ever.
core values
Why values matter
Values provide a yard stick and governance tool
against which vision, strategy, aims, objectives and
actions can be evaluated.
Values guide the way in which an organisation
operates.
Values provide a framework for decision making.

their actions.

Exercise
Create a list of the potential values your organisation
might have—at this stage don’t worry about how many
values you write down. (You could also make a note of
any values your organisation definitely doesn’t hold).
Order and prioritise these values, with the most
important first. Group similar values together, then
consolidate and amalgamate as you go.
Look at the top 3-5 values for your organisation
individually: does each value pass the test overleaf?
1

Does each value pass the test?
If you were to start a new organisation, would you build it around this value
regardless of the sector?
Would you want your organisation to continue to stand for this core value 100
years into the future, no matter what changes occur in the outside world?
Would you want your organisation to hold this core value, even it at some
point in time it became a competitive or strategic disadvantage?
Do you believe that those who do not share this core value―those who
breach it consistently―simply do not belong in your organisation?
If you are truly honest, is this an authentic and timeless core value that you have
always held and will always hold or is it a value that you simply aspire to
achieve?
Collins, J.C. (2002)
Purpose
Purpose...
Is an organisation’s most fundamental reason for
being.
Captures the soul of the organisation.
Reflects people’s idealistic motivations for doing the
organisation’s work.
Is like a guiding star on the horizon—forever pursued
but never reached.
Collins, J.C. & Porras, J.I. (1996)

Exercise
Briefly draft 3 different purpose statements for your
organisation. Don’t worry about getting it ‘right first
time’.
Note which purpose category each statement fits into.
Which is your preferred statement?
Share your preferred purpose with other people. Is it
thinking deep enough? Does your favored purpose pass
the test overleaf?
1
2
3
Does your purpose pass the test?
Do you find this purpose personally inspiring?
Can you envision this purpose being as valid 100 years from now as it is today?
Does the purpose help you think expansively about the long-term possibilities and range of
activities that your organisation can consider over the next 100 years, beyond your current
services, sectors and strategies?
Does the purpose help you decide what activities to not pursue, to eliminate from
consideration?
Is this purpose authentic―something true to what the organisation is all about―not merely
words on paper that ‘sound nice’?
Would this purpose be greeted with enthusiasm rather than cynicism by a broad base of
people within your organisation?
When telling your friends, family and loved ones what you do for a living, would you feel
proud in describing your work in terms of this purpose?
Collins, J.C. (2002)
Use values and purpose to move
from this...
...to this
The process of getting there
Involve a wide range of people—giving others opportunity to
contribute creates engagement and ensures accurate insight.
Ask staff and stakeholders for their ideas on the organisation’s
values and purpose; include them in the creative process.
Collate these ideas, and with a small group that together
exemplifies your organisation, make decisions.
Finalise and publish the outcome in your marketing, corporate
communications, website and elsewhere to ensure consistent
messaging.
Live by these principles, make decisions by them.

  • 3. Core values are... The essential and enduring tenets of an organisation. The central beliefs of an organisation—the principles by which an organisation lives and breathes.

  • 14. Exercise Create a list of the potential values your organisation might have—at this stage don’t worry about how many values you write down. (You could also make a note of any values your organisation definitely doesn’t hold). Order and prioritise these values, with the most important first. Group similar values together, then consolidate and amalgamate as you go. Look at the top 3-5 values for your organisation individually: does each value pass the test overleaf? 1 2 3
  • 15. Does each value pass the test? If you were to start a new organisation, would you build it around this value regardless of the sector? Would you want your organisation to continue to stand for this core value 100 years into the future, no matter what changes occur in the outside world? Would you want your organisation to hold this core value, even it at some point in time it became a competitive or strategic disadvantage? Do you believe that those who do not share this core value―those who breach it consistently―simply do not belong in your organisation? If you are truly honest, is this an authentic and timeless core value that you have always held and will always hold or is it a value that you simply aspire to achieve? Collins, J.C. (2002)
  • 17. Purpose... Is an organisation’s most fundamental reason for being. Captures the soul of the organisation. Reflects people’s idealistic motivations for doing the organisation’s work. Is like a guiding star on the horizon—forever pursued but never reached. Collins, J.C. & Porras, J.I. (1996) 1 2 3 4

  • 37. Exercise Briefly draft 3 different purpose statements for your organisation. Don’t worry about getting it ‘right first time’. Note which purpose category each statement fits into. Which is your preferred statement? Share your preferred purpose with other people. Is it thinking deep enough? Does your favored purpose pass the test overleaf? 1 2 3
  • 38. Does your purpose pass the test? Do you find this purpose personally inspiring? Can you envision this purpose being as valid 100 years from now as it is today? Does the purpose help you think expansively about the long-term possibilities and range of activities that your organisation can consider over the next 100 years, beyond your current services, sectors and strategies? Does the purpose help you decide what activities to not pursue, to eliminate from consideration? Is this purpose authentic―something true to what the organisation is all about―not merely words on paper that ‘sound nice’? Would this purpose be greeted with enthusiasm rather than cynicism by a broad base of people within your organisation? When telling your friends, family and loved ones what you do for a living, would you feel proud in describing your work in terms of this purpose? Collins, J.C. (2002)

  • 41. The process of getting there Involve a wide range of people—giving others opportunity to contribute creates engagement and ensures accurate insight. Ask staff and stakeholders for their ideas on the organisation’s values and purpose; include them in the creative process. Collate these ideas, and with a small group that together exemplifies your organisation, make decisions. Finalise and publish the outcome in your marketing, corporate communications, website and elsewhere to ensure consistent messaging. Live by these principles, make decisions by them. 1 2 3 4 5
